I watched this many years ago because I loved Hyun Bin. Yes, it is a very slow movie, but the symbolism to me ran deep. It's one of those movies I watched when my then boyfriend was away, and I was alone at home. I cried, and I really enjoyed it. It's not fast paced, and to be honest it's very real. It's what happens when you love someone, and then you loved someone, and then doubt sets in.

The ending to me, shows that the wife is considering staying and trying again

This movie was about the most lackluster movie I've probably seen. Maybe 14 lines of words actually said. The great thing? It uses blank scenes of them just starring into mid air or smoking as a way to be symbolic. Don't watch -- unless you want a nice nap ;)

haven't seen this movie, and i tend to like symbolism, but i get the comments below me.. sometimes those type of movies aren't entertaining. i believe hyun bin was trying to get more serious parts as an actor so he chose those.

Well ... I tried to like this movie because of Hyun Bin. Try as I would, though, I guess I'm not a person who enjoys dark, foreboding, movies with a lot of symbolism. I enjoy being entertained. Is there some reason why his last two films were so dark -- dark and somber plus dark without light?!? I wish him all the best in his films after the Korean Marines, but I'm hoping they will be a bit lighter :)

What is particularly moving about Hyun Bin is that he acts what he "wants" to act in. He doesn't follow status quo just to make a buck. I think this show was filled with symbolism and I love the open ended ending, which by the way I usually DESPISE..we can come up with our own conclusions. Sometimes I do wonder if the writer knows or just left it unknown even within the writer's own self. Hyun Bin is poignant, amazing, and yes can be catastrophic (in a compelling way) with every work he does. Come Rain, Come Shine is a film to be reckoned with. It is now in my collection of favorites.

we cannot please everyone with the movie "come rain,come shine".people do have different opinions.either they would like it or not.whats important was the effort of all the cast of the movie to end with this kind of film, having it shown on a berlin film festival was already an honor.
i had watched it twice already, and for me i liked it,why?,because the story really happens on real couples lives.it was nice.it was kinda slow,yes,but i was able to feel the story.
-looking forward for hyunbins drama series and movies after he's released from his military service.

without those critics, how can he possible to be better..just think of it that way...I am a fan of him too..but it wont hurt him when there are lots of critics or negative responds from viewers who watched his movies or dramas instead it will make him stronger n more creative in expanding his actions abilities..so ..fighting K.T.P.!!.there are still lots to learn since acting is quite a hard job actually..

Why are people always hating on him? A Millionaires First Love was one of the first 5 movies i watch when I got into Korean culture. I loved the movie even though it was sad. I"ll be waiting along too with everyone one else for him to finish his service. I'm looking forward to more of his movies. I'll be looking for this movie to watch because I know I'll like it and I'm sure to make you cry as well. Hyun Bin is a great actor^^

movies like this had always seemed a little too peaceful for me. but i very much enjoyed this film. i adore the leads, and the movie contains few characters but the leads. the intricate details in the actors' every expression and movement are incredible. this film is extremely enjoyable if you park yourself solid in front of your computer for its entirety and get into the story. it'll make you "aww" all the way till the end.

Having read a lot of negative reviews on early screenings of "Come Rain Come Shine" I did fear the worst prior to watching the movie here in Korea. After watching the movie I can understand why the movie turned off a lot of people - the film is slow, emotions tucked away and the narrative is minimal. With that said, I actually found myself enjoying the movie more as it progressed and by the half way point in the film became absolutely drawn into the world of these two people who are spending their last day together prior to their breakup. Questions that I wanted answered kept popping into my mind "Why is Hyun-Bin's character so withdrawn?" "Will Lim Soo-Jung's character have a change of heart by the end of the day?" "Is Lim Soo-Jung the villain or victim? "Will Hyun-Bin ever blurt out something heartfelt to save their relationship?"

The movie takes place over a one day period, kind of like director Lee Yoon-Ki's prior film "My Dear Enemy" but this time around the movie takes place entirely in the home of Hyun-Bin's character. I think you can say the house is symbolic for Hyun-Bin's character, visually the house is immaculate & sharp, but inside empty and with leaks occurring. Note when Lim Soo-Jung has difficulty in closing the sliding glass door, Hyun-Bin has no problems whatsoever shutting the door to the outside world.

Visually - I found the movie a little too clean and at times looked like a coffee commercial, but I guess this reflects the personality of the male protagonist. I did really get into the underlying emotions of the two main characters and felt that was drawing the card of the film.

Although "Come Rain Come Shine" doesn't top Lee Yoon-Ki's prior film "My Dear Enemy" I really did find myself enjoying "Come Rain Come Shine" way more than expected. In retrospect, I feel like "Come Rain Come Shine" is the yuppie version of Lee Yoon-Ki's earlier film "Ad-Lib Night" - with all the good and bad that comparison may draw.
